This question is asking for a opinion with some facts to back it up, so I will try my best here.

<h3>Answer: Boredom and Frustration</h3>

There are many possible reasons that people bite their nails, like whether a finger nail clipper is available or they have developed a habit.

But there may be more to it than we think, researchers have found that bored and frustrated people bite their nails the most. The younger you are, the more likely you are to bite your nails.

Nearly half of adolescents bite their nails, according to one study, and upwards of 60 percent chewed them in childhood.

<h3>Some other reasons could be: </h3>

Nail Biters Are More Likely to Be Perfectionists

Psychiatric Disorders

Freud Thought It Was About Sex (Of Course)

These just some possible answers, but the main one is Boredom and Frustration.

Explanation:

lung cancer cannot be reversed as the damage is already done although you can go see your doctor for help with it or a specialist. Cigarette smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer. In the United States, cigarette smoking is linked to about 80% to 90% of lung cancer deaths. Using other tobacco products such as cigars or pipes also increases the risk for lung cancer. Tobacco smoke is a toxic mix of more than 7,000 chemicals.  smoking can cause your teeth to be yellow because over time, smoking causes the teeth to turn yellow or even yellowish brown.  the main or most popular cause of dental staining is tar and nicotine. The nicotine and tar from smoking seeps into the tooth's enamel through tiny pores, leaving the teeth discolored. Smoking causes cancer, heart disease, stroke, lung diseases, diabetes, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Smoking also increases risk for tuberculosis, certain eye diseases, and problems of the immune system, including rheumatoid arthritis. Smoking can cause lung disease by damaging your airways and the small air sacs (alveoli) found in your lungs. Lung diseases caused by smoking include COPD, which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smoking causes most cases of lung cancer. Smoking harms nearly every organ in the body, including the heart, blood vessels, lungs, eyes, mouth, reproductive organs, bones, bladder, and digestive organs. This article focuses on how smoking affects the heart and blood vessels. Smoking damages the airways and small air sacs in your lungs. This damage starts soon after someone starts smoking, and lung function continues to worsen as long as the person smokes. Still, it may take years for the problem to become noticeable enough for lung disease to be diagnosed

What is the difference between chromosomes and chromatids?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer/Explanation:

The difference between chromosomes and chromatids

During mitosis, the cell replicates its DNA and passes it onto two daughter cells.

After DNA replication, a chromosome is made up of two identical sister chromatids. When these are separated, they are divided into the two daughter cells so that each contains the genetic material.

When the chromatids are joined together in replicated DNA, they are called chromatids and form the chromosome. When they are divided and separated into two daughter cells, the sister chromatids are called chromosomes again.

Body goes through mitosis

The cells in your body go through mitosis when you need to grow. They divide to form new cells to increase the size of tissues. Mitosis also replaces damaged cells to repair tissues.
